CLASS SONG 1. Agawam, dear old Agawam. I low can we forget? It was there we gathered, Happy, you can bet, Never a thought or sorrow. As the days rolled by, We’ll rememljer Agawam, Classmates, you and I. 2. In our future joys, 'Trials, and troubles too, We’ll uphold the ideals That we learned from you. This our Class Night song, We dedicate to you. Agawam, dear old Agawam, To you, we say,--------Adieu. 3. As in the endless sunset skies, Their way the swallows wing “Goodbye, our Alma Mater dear”, Our sad farewell we sing, As on the tide of life we drift, Your name we’ll ere hold high, We’ll talk and sing about your fame 'Fill our praises reach the sky. 4. And now with loyal hearts we pray Your glory ever grow, And may we ever worthy prove Of all you could bestow; And in our parting may we say For we hope we’ve done our best, “Oh, may our Alma Mater be Ever honored, ever blest.” ELLEN ROSS Page Thirty-One

ADIEU AGAWAM Today the bells are ringing out To sound our sad adieu; And Alma Mater now doth say Her fond farewell anew. We gaze again upon the past, Of things that were well done.— And then our school days sink at last, A brilliant setting sun. The golden liells peal out tonight To echo happy hearts; For Agawam High, the famous one, On us has left its mark. We pledge ourselves to do our l est And show that ’32 Will struggle upward in Fife’s test For fame and triumphs new. ANGELINA CASTELLI
